The black rook is an undefended piece. White can win the rook if he can find a way to check the black king and attack the black rook at the same time!

1.Qf6+

If you are calculating moves it's the right habbit to try all the forcing check moves. Black can choose between to moves with his king. The problem is that in both cases the double attack we love to play is possible!

To find this winning double attack is probably easy for you right now.

2... Kg7 3.Qxb3
